Design Museum visit
Last Sunday was a super bright day so we decided to take the my P&J down to Bermondsey to check out the exhibition of Sir Terence Conran's 80th birthday celebration at the Design Museum in which were displayed some of our very own teapots. On leaving the museum in the distance I saw a young chap taking photos of the front of the car. When we eventually arrived to get in the car, he asked for my email address saying he would email me the results.A couple of days later came the result of his spontaneous picture taking.They were all of a very good standard, but I have selected probably the most atmospheric. A generous gesture really from a complete stranger----but then thats what the car attracts time and time again!

Jay is it possible that you are taking TM intravenously?---How do you do it? Is this a record?

Jay, iPad?---Sounds too technical for me!
After college (RCA) my wife and I set up a pottery company (London Pottery) and have been designing industrial ceramics i.e. factory made (in China of course)as opposed to hand made studio pottery ever since.We have for the last 6 years concerntrated on our teapot designs which now sell in very large numbers through a distributor based in Midhurst. Thats it in a nut shell!
PS
About my morgan registration.You should know by now that when one embarks on the purchase of a morgan all commonsense goes out the window---unfortunately for me this was not just restricted to dress!!but included a massively overpriced piece of nonsense from the cr**ks in Cardiff!!

Lovely story and congratulations on having your teapots displayed at the Design Museum.
We all say it countless times, Morgans are such beautiful design icons in their own right and revel in being photographed. This black and white image is so atmospheric and I shall try to incorporate the occasional B&W image into my blog in future.

The photo has a kind of urban gangster feel about it don't you think ? Hang on a minute... isn't that Michael Cain in the distance..
